Jackbox Games
So we've played Jackbox Games in the TABN discord a few times now and I think we've all enjoyed it and want to do more so figured I'd create a thread where we can try to organize a time to do so. (Mostly because me starting them after midnight when I've been drinking is really becoming a problem for me the next day - I am dead tired right now and it's only 1pm) So, as long as we're not planning on playing after midnight ET, I'll be happy to host whenever! Throw some times out and we'll see what works best for everyone!
For those not familiar with Jackbox Games, it's a bunch of party games. It's meant to be played in person with everyone looking at one screen that hosts the game and you play through your phone, but I host the game in a discord chat where everyone can watch the game from the discord screen (you'll need 2 screens - one to watch, one to play - phone/tablet/computer works for all) We've played Quiplash, Drawful, and Fibbage but can do others if anyone has any preferences! Here's a preview of them:

Re: Drunk Midnight Quiplash is fun though.
I'm in! I feel like weekends would probably be best for everybody, easier to co-ordinate schedules that way?

Re: "zaz sux" is not creative.
You'll just need a screen to run Discord on and then a different one (ideally a phone) to go to Jackbox.tv. Once I have the game running it'll tell you what code to use to enter the room and you'll just need a creative name!

Re: Insecure Gus said. Also allergies are real.
Yep, discord.com. That's what I use. You won't be able to use your mic but we haven't been doing that anyway.zazisaspaz wrote:Is there a discord website?

Re: Jackbox Games
Thank you both for following up
It was a pretty silly question looking back, but it’s nice to have confirmation. One day we’ll have to do it with Zoom and screenshare so we can all talk during the game. I think Eric might play tomorrow too (if he can stay awake long enough)

Re: Lookin at you Kev (where's Kev?)
Starting up soon! Feel free to join any time - if we're in the middle of a game, they're pretty quick and we'll be done in no more than 15 minutes - jump in the chat in the meantime!

Re: Or day. Or 3:47am.
Anyone up for this again? My Friday and Saturdays for the next 2 weeks are a little iffy, but I think I'm open most other nights if anyone wants to suggest one.
